Hello,

    Currently org-mode will adjust the justification in a column if it
thinks it is a numeric field.  I use hexidecimal a lot and got some
wierd results.  Eventually I found the option to adjust it and have
set my own RE of (org-table-number-regexp
"^\\([<>]?[-+^.0-9]*[0-9][-+^.0-9eEdDx()%]*\\|\\(0[xX]\\)?[0-9a-fA-F][0-9a-fA-F]*\\)$").
 I made it based on the general number RE in the code.  Right now, I'm
just worried that some day the general number RE might become
better/more general and I might miss out.

Would it possible to add hex to the general number option, or to make
a general+hex option?  If not, would there be a way I could do
something to say 'match general-numbers or my RE"?

This isn't a big deal.  Just though I'd ask.

Thanks,
Edd
